Hampton Art Card - Just For Youtag:typepad.com,2003:post-6a00e550066280883301b8d10ad24f970c2015-05-08T05:00:00-04:002015-05-04T23:27:59-04:00Give your box some contrast by cutting it once from patterned paper ("A") and once from a coordinating paper or card stock ("B"). Score both boxes on their fold lines. Cut off the flaps from the body of A's box. Then cut down Box B's body to about one inch, cutting the sides on an inward slant so they act as tabs for the flaps. Adhere B's tabs to the inside of A's box and fold the flaps outward. Finish assembling box and adhere to project.Deborah Nolan

They are a terrific substitute for gems and make for a nice flat card for mailing purposes. They are also incredibly inexpensive, so what's not to love?! Get 'em here. Get the bigger ones (on the borders of my card) here.Deborah Nolan

Hi, all - I love it that you're here!

So here's the card I made for the April Card Chain Challenge. Being a tad bit absent-minded, I suspect that I didn't follow the parameters of my own challenge - lol! But I like to think that encouraging someone is a friendly thing to do and that being friendly is almost like celebrating someone as a friend, right?
